About Key Ranch

    Key Ranch is a family owned and operated facility that provides its services with high quality standards, backed by over twenty years' experience in Thoroughbred breeding.  Through the diversity of an exceptional stallion roster, and the incorporation of established predictable breeding patterns, Key Ranch is able to provide a positive nick for virtually any mare.   

    There is no mystery surrounding the success of Thoroughbred stallions in Kentucky.  Mares are bred to stallions appropriate for them, and the resulting foals are raised to be athletes.  A stallion is proven on the track, not in the sale ring.

    One stallion does not work with all mares, just as one mare does not work with all stallions.  Producing a good, solid racehorse begins with careful breeding choices.  Certainly, genetics play a major role in the determination of athletic ability.   But raising a successful athlete also requires proper nutrition, routine care, and sound conditioning.

    The dollars spent in breeding a racehorse can be great or small.  The time and effort invested is always great.  This investment may be protected making careful breeding choices, and by meeting the requirements of the athlete.
